One of the useful ways to get around within a Microsoft Word document is with 
Control-arrow.  Control-left_arrow and control-right_arrow work the same in 
OpenOffice, moving around one word at a time.  Control-up_arrow and 
control-down_arrow work confusingly differently.  Doing a control up_arrow to 
move the cursor up a paragraph, as would work in MSWord, has the surprisingly 
confusing result of taking the current paragraph along for the ride, thereby 
inadvertently scrambling the layout of the document.  Control-shift-up/down and 
Alt-up/down appear not to do anything at all.

A little experience of using OpenOffice can teach one to avoid using control-up 
and control-down as a way to try to move quickly around the document, but is 
there an easy way to move the cursor backwards and fowards a paragraph at a 
time?  (or even a sentence at a time?)  My search of the help system did not 
find one.

This is actually one of my favourite features of OOo. I love the ease to move a paragraph around. I don't have to copy and paste the paragraph, and maybe take and extra return with me. (GRRRR in Word)
